Deep Political Thoughts

Well, even though there was a photo (claiming to be free for use), it seems to have vanished.  You will simply have to supply your own comparison photo.  That should not be hard as our fearless (oops ... make that "fearful") leader spends as much time as possible being photographed.  

Have you noticed the striking resemblance between Howdy Doody and Barack Obama?  And both are puppets.  Amazing.

Carolina Wren Babies

I realize that this is not a terribly good photo, but they were quite well hidden in that flower pot!  The next time I peeped in ... they had flown.

The Carolina Wren Family

I have a family of Carolina Wrens who have built a nest in a flowerpot which is just outside my front door. As you can see in the above photo, a Daddy Longlegs spider is about to become lunch.

This is the flowerpot where the nest is hidden. The parents are doing an amazing job. They hunt for bugs all the time and one will keep watch (usually with a bug in his/her beak) while the other feeds, and then they'll switch jobs. I have a feeling these should be very well-fed wren babies.


This time I fear a butterfly has met its match. Looks like breakfast will be colorful this morning.

Tyler and Matt. Getting Married This Weekend!

At the Tonner doll convention this weekend, Tyler and Matt will make their union official.  In honor of that, I thought I'd do a  photo of one of my favorite Tyler dolls in "her" wedding gown.

Bi-ii-ig Hair!

Big hair. 

 I thought it might be fun to try a Dolly Parton look on Bijou.  Red lips and Big Hair.  What more do you need?  Well .... spike-heeled platform shoes for one thing.  Oddly enough they don't seem to make those for dolls.  Or they haven't yet.  I expect it will roll down the pike one of these days.  

Bijou will be ready.

With the hair and the lips, can the shoes be far behind?  I think not.
